The Blue Circulation
Turning wastewater into a force that protects the ocean.
From home to river, from river to ocean, from ocean to coral.
A cycle that restores balance.
Started in Amami Island, Japan.
Created by Tommy / Nobuo Tominaga.
The Concept
This is not cleaning.
This is a cycle.
Household wastewater is not waste.
It is the starting point of a new ecosystem.
The Blue Circulation transforms everyday life
into environmental restoration.

The Blue Circulation
Marine sports are fun.
They are also a way to understand nature.
Feeling the wind.
Reading the waves.
Noticing changes in the ocean.
Experience leads to understanding.
Understanding leads to protection.

From Amami to the world
AMAMI AI-2
Turning Household Wastewater into Ocean Protection
A locally developed environmental solution from Amami Island, Japan.
Created by one individual, distributed freely to the community.
What is AMAMI AI-2?
AMAMI AI-2 is a customized microbial solution based on EHIME AI-2, enhanced with local sugarcane and native microorganisms.
It transforms household wastewater into a natural purification force, helping protect rivers, oceans, and coral reefs.
Why It Matters
Coral reefs are under serious threat from:
- Phosphates from detergents
- Nutrient pollution (eutrophication)
- Water quality degradation
These pollutants originate from everyday household wastewater.
The Solution: Start at Home
Instead of relying only on large-scale treatment systems, AMAMI AI-2 works at the source.
From the moment wastewater leaves your home, purification begins.
How It Works
- Poured into drains
- Microbial biofilm forms in pipes
- Organic waste is broken down
- Native microorganisms are activated in nature
- Water quality improves through natural cycles
Real Action from Amami
- Independently developed Amami-specific formula
- Produced 40 liters of concentrated solution
- Distributed free to local communities
This is not a product.
It is a community-scale environmental infrastructure.
The Blue Circulation
Home → Drain → River → Ocean → Coral → Ecosystem
Turning pollution flow into a purification cycle.

Join the Movement
This project starts with one person.
It grows through communities.
And it can scale globally.
From Amami to the world.
The Blue Circulation begins here.
About the Founder
I am a marine operator based in Amami Island, Japan.
For over 40 years, I have worked closely with the ocean.
What I see today is clear:
the biggest threat to coral reefs is not far away — it comes from our daily lives.
That is why I created AMAMI AI-2.
Not as a product, but as a simple solution anyone can use.
I produced 40 liters myself and distributed it freely to the community.
Because protecting the ocean should start at home.
This is not the end.
This is the beginning of a new cycle.
Our Philosophy
Marine sports are not the goal.
They are a way to understand nature.
Feeling the wind.
Reading the waves.
Noticing changes in the ocean.
These experiences connect people to the natural world.
And understanding leads to protection.
Experience → Understanding → Protection
